It's a surefire way to make money. Not everyone hates sexuality as much as you do Verbatim. Also, how is it misogynistic? You haven't given any good example of how it is.

Except I have. Demeaning women, objectifying them, is misogynistic. By definition. You're basically saying, "This isn't a person with thoughts, feelings, opinions, beliefs, and emotions of varying complexity--this is just something for me to whack my dick off to."

theyre pixels on a screen verby

And women are just an amalgam of atoms and molecules. What's your fucking point.

What's wrong with profiting off of sexuality?

It's misogynistic.

Sex is disgusting. I fucking loathe this "pro-sex" culture we're trying to develop nowadays.

After all this time I hear gamergate and I still don't know what that whole thing is.

Hope this helps.

The Gamergate controversy began in August 2014 and concerns sexism and progressivism in video game culture. It is most notable for harassment against several feminists in the video game industry, including game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, and cultural critic Anita Sarkeesian. The campaign of harassment was coordinated in IRC channels and online forums such as Reddit, 4chan, and 8chan by an anonymous and amorphous group that ultimately came to be represented by the Twitter hashtag #Gamergate. The harassment included doxing, threats of rape, and death threats as well as being related to a mass shooting threat in protest of an invited speech featuring Sarkeesian.
Gamergate has been described as a manifestation of a culture war over gaming culture diversification, artistic recognition, social criticism of video games, and the gamer social identity. Some of the people using the Gamergate hashtag allege collusion among feminists, progressives, journalists and social critics, which they believe is the cause of increasing social criticism in video game reviews. Some hashtag users have said the goal for their actions is to improve the ethical standards of video game journalism. These concerns have been widely dismissed by commentators as trivial, based on conspiracy theories, unfounded in fact, or unrelated to actual issues of ethics. Users of the hashtag launched email campaigns targeting firms advertising in publications of which they disapproved, asking them to withdraw their advertisements.

Essentially, Gamergate was a movement by neckbeards on reddit, 4chan, etc. against people like Sarkeesian who argue that video game culture is often misogynistic.
